...I received my Minor in Spanish Language from Western Washington University. I spent two quarters in Mexico living with a family and studying. I was immersed into their culture and had to learn to speak, or be really lonely.

I have taught math and science for nearly 20 years. Before that, I worked for NASA as a research associate at the Goddard Space Flight Center and later at the University of Washington as coordinator for the NASA Educator Resource Center. Currently I am certificated as a Washington State teacher.

...My degrees are in Math and German with enough credit hours for minors in Business and History. I have taught classes on German, math and religion. I coached youth and adult sports - basketball, baseball, soccer and volleyball.

...I have excelled on my entrance exam for medical school that tests chemistry and the sciences (95%ile on the MCAT), however I like to believe that I am more than my test score. Acing a test versus teaching a subject are two completely different subjects. Result: I am not one to say "This is really easy".

...This gave me a head start in college enabling me to do a summer research project for my organic chemistry professor. I also was able to work as a teaching assistant for an advanced laboratory class as I had taken the class a year ahead of other students. In graduate school I taught undergraduate laboratory classes for a year prior to focusing on my thesis research.
